Abstract :
Because of global warming effects, instead of the SF6 gas circuit breaker (GCB), the vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) is considered for use for high voltage and high power circuit breaker and switchgear and it is considered that VCB will be used in these application, though some research and development will be necessary.
